tini VS Podgrab

yes busybox httpd or civetweb is even smaller, both around 300kb.

for tini you mean https://github.com/krallin/tini? how large is your final docker image, why not just alpine in that case which is musl+busybox

Tini, a useful process manager for containerized apps

Ah gotcha. I believe it can be baked into images as well, per the entrypoint example in the readme: https://github.com/krallin/tini

Not sure how this will fare IRL in k8s as I haven’t much experience there. It’s still silly that this is the default behavior where you need something like Tini, but I digress.

To be fair, even for running a single process the pitfalls are real. I've been seeing Tini[1] a lot for these situations.

I just read in the README that Tini is included by Docker since 1.13 if using --init flag.

The default init process used is the first docker-init executable found in the system path of the Docker daemon process. This docker-init binary, included in the default installation, is backed by tini.

AFAIK It's for the init process to reparent zombie processes. See TINI

The second easiest (and most common when your entry point is a bash script) is to use a fake init tool like tini

I use Podgrab[0].

Light footprint, easy to use -- and no reliance on Google or anyone else.

I found a great tool for myself as a programmer here but not everybody knows how to set that up https://github.com/akhilrex/podgrab. So I build a simple little website here for anybody who has the same problem.

Something podgrab could fix? https://github.com/akhilrex/podgrab

How does it compare to podgrab?

I created an alternative for [Podgrab](https://github.com/akhilrex/podgrab) named [PodFetch](https://github.com/SamTV12345/PodFetch) it contains more features than Podgrab and also includes many bug fixes like a local RSS feed. (Bonus: The backend is written in Rust :D ). You can search podcasts via iTunes or via PodcastIndex.org, download, find local podcasts or subscribe to the local rss feeds.

Podgrab to download my podcasts

I am thinking that if users are willing to automate a workflow to download new episodes to their Plex Library ( just came across podgrab (https://github.com/akhilrex/podgrab) which makes me think automating episode download to Plex library should be easy. And then your podcast app can do the magic you have done with Prologue.

It looks like there's an option to export an OPML file containing Podgrab feed links, which could then be imported into any application (I like AntennaPod)
